Science Fiction always has a lot to say about the future and if you want to keep track of the future and when these shows and movies happened, this handy infographic will help. This is the Future according to Science Fiction. It goes from 2012 all the way up to 932045.
These NECA Cinemachines are great and honestly, I’ve waited for far too many years for toy replicas like this. The second wave of NECA’s die-cast vehicle collectibles is here and this time around they are focusing on the Narcissus shuttle from Alien, the Scout Ship from Predator and the Tribe Ship from Predator 2.
These awesome miniature replicas measure about 5″ to 6″ long and are hand-painted, with some amazing detail. You can buy each ship in the series for roughly $25. each. I can’t wait to see what they will be adding next.

There’s something very satisfying about Kevin Taylor’s Fellow Travelers series. These illustrations feature stylized renderings of space travelers from literature, movies, games, and more. They are playful and simple, but they evoke a sense of nostalgia as soon as you look at them.

Well Batman v Superman recently hit theaters, so Select Car Leasing thought it would be a good time to take a look back at the Batmobile’s evolution in film. This is one of the most iconic cars ever created and over the years it has changed many times and has been driven by many actors. However, no matter how much it changes, you always know it belongs to Batman with just a glance. It is as much of a character as Batman himself. Check out all of it’s incarnations in this cool video with accompanying infographic.
Here is a project that I would have loved to see come alive. Sadly, I don’t think it will happen anytime soon. With the success of Batman ’66, Joe Quinones and Kate Leth wanted to revisit another famous era from Batman’s past. The Tim Burton era. Hence the name Batman ’89. DC Comics foolishly passed on this miniseries pitch. It’s really too bad that we never got to see this, because it sounds great.
Quinones shared some details and proof-of-concept art from the proposal and it looks awesome.
“Our story would have picked up the threads left by Tim Burton’s Batman Returns,” Quinones explains on his blog. “We would have seen the return of Selina Kyle/ Catwoman as well as introductions to ‘Burton-verse’ versions of Robin, Barbara Gordon/Batgirl, Harley Quinn and Poison Ivy. It also would have showcased the turn of Billy Dee Williams’ Harvey Dent into Two-Face.”

This amazing piece of art is simply titled Jokers by Ben Jeffery. It features all 4 of the TV/Movie Jokers side by side. Thank God these guys never found some way to bend reality and get together to terrorize Gotham. Batman would have had his hands full. Seeing them all side by side, it really shows the evolution of the character, at least as far as movies and TV are concerned.
Bottleneck Galley has revealed Matt Ferguson’s newest Star Wars Saga triptych and boy do these three pieces look amazing. The sale has ended for these, but they are too good not to share. They capture the essence of the trilogy perfectly. I wish I had seen these earlier. I would have bought a set for sure. Just lovely.
This fun video shows off how robots evolved in movies and TV. Nowadays Sci-Fi flicks just aren’t complete unless they feature robots. That’s cool, because we love robots around here. Some of the best movies of all time have robots. The artwork is from Scott Park and Sploid turned his work into a cool video.
Sit back and enjoy the evolution of these synthetic beings. It makes me wonder what kind of robots we will see next.

Berlin, Germany based artist Sanja Zakovska created this fun series called The Lost Family Portraits. It depicts some of our favorite Sci-Fi icons in antique style portraits. The best one is the Alien/Predator family portrait with Predator dad, Alien mom and Facehugger child.
This is a clever and fun series that puts some familiar faces into our past and lets us view them as if in a scrapbook.
